The Verge on Bricked Epson printers make a strong case for user repairability

Jess Weatherbed at the Verge has this article. And it hits home as I have had several EPSON printers End of Life themselves, and I had so much invested in Ink Cartridges I had no option but to buy another printer. It is insane that they don’t make the ink pads as user replaceable, so that this doesn’t happen, but Epson will never do it on it’s own because if it allowed it, 3rd parties would make replacements and keep printers going and they want the extra infusion of cash.
